MACH1 SWAP

[mareospeedwagon]

I have a question about the pats system on a motor swap. i have the motor/tranny/computer out of a 03 mach 1. I am looking at putting it into a 94-98 stang. if i get a stang w/o pats will i have problems because of the mach 1 computer?

Simply have PATS turned off in the tune and your problem will be solved.

yup, any tuner can ditch the PATS system.

my buddies 97 GT had PATS on it, what year did that start?

Just use the GT harness and computer. You will have to modify the GT harness for the 4v cops, but it's easy. You will have to modify the alternator plug and lengthen the coolant temp sensor plug. Possibly some other minor differances. But overall it's pretty striaght forward and simple. Helps if you know how to solder and heatshrink wires. Do not use butt connectors!

LMK through pm if you need any help or have any questions.

they started in 1996, only a few models had pats. It was a full blown epidemic in 1997.

A good tuner can get the car running without the PATS working.
